Better Business Bureau® of the Upstate & AARP® South Carolina are partnering together to host a FREE Secure Your ID "Shred Day," a national, semi-annual identity theft document shredding event designed to educate and deter consumers and small businesses from becoming victims of identity theft. The event features on-site shredding, electronic recycling, plus tips to protect identity. All proceeds from the event benefit Better Business Bureau Education Foundation.

Consumers are allowed to bring 3 small banker size boxes or 3 plastic bags of shredding. Cardboard boxes will be emptied and returned to consumers. Due to safety concerns and to ensure that we are able to serve as many vehicles as possible, we are unable to accept people on foot or allow people to get out of their vehicle to watch their paper shredded. The complimentary shred event is first come, first serve or until the shred trucks fill up, so coming early is advised.
